A Writer’s Unwritten Rule

Accidental Poet

 Yes, I’m inclined to write

You might say I’m obsessed to rhyme

But in today’s crazy world

Far worse has been done with time

 

So, I let the voice inside

Come forth with words of prose

Sometimes of tears that fall like rain

Others of the beauty in a single rose

 

I hear angels sing within my heart

Listen closely and you too may hear it

The smile that grows upon your face

I think you’ll find it’s a pleasure to wear it

 

Walk this earth with more than open eyes

Each step with radiant heart

Don’t forsake yourself

For all the beauty you are

 

Sometimes the words come not from me

And I’m merely a writing tool

But I’ll always lend a hand

For that’s a writer’s unwritten rule

    Lovely words , AP 🙂 do the words come from the angels , sometimes?
    Creativity flowing through you but sometimes the angels are helping you ..

      Yes rose, I believe the words can come from angels and our muse. If you sometimes feel an intuitive feeling or voice inside trying to tell you something, its a special message for you. I find it happens a lot with my writing. I'm sure it does with you and others here on MPS. Thanks for reading and your comment. 😉

            You nailed the reason for penning the verses we post and read here on M.P.S. - writers are those who can rise to a Muse and get across what newscasters can never do - a thoughtful subject and thanks A.P.

              Those words just seem to flow from us AP.

                  Yes, that's when our muse cracks the whip and there's no sleep to be found. Poetry in a poet's tree? 😜
